About Sylvan

Sylvan is a charming Lab mix looking for his forever home in New England. At about 14 weeks old, he's almost fully potty trained and brave enough to go out even in the rain. According to his foster mom, Sylvan has a bright personality. He’s mastered the stairs and knows commands like sit and wait. He's smart and eager to learn, quickly picking up on leash walking during their small outings. Sylvan loves to play with other dogs but tends to chase cats, so he’s still learning his boundaries. Cuddly and affectionate, he enjoys sitting on laps and sharing kisses, and he's doing wonderfully in his crate with minimal whining. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and on prevention for fleas, ticks, and heartworms. If you’re looking for a pup who is ready to bring joy to your home, Sylvan is the one!
